had my semi permanent make up done (eyebrows) - IT. IS. AMAZING.

they look brilliant. perfect, tiny hairstrokes, a lovely arch, a perfect browny black colour exactly like my natural hair colour, and they are completely symetterical (sp?) . they completely open up my face and eyes and i have no make up on at all and yet i somehow look lightly made up and natural.

i have eyebrows for the first time, like, ever AND I WILL NEVER HAVE TO DRAW THEM ON AGAIN! well for at least a year anyway

Mine are the same, I really want mine done! Where did you get yours done? Mine are really dark but sparse so they look a little strange without definer and I'm sooo tired of it smudging off not matter what brand I use.

the woman who did mine said i should expect them to fade a bit, i don't want them to though! i have 2 free follow up appointments so if they have faded too much hopefully i can ask her to go over them again.

yeah they did fade, but the technician explained that when i left the salon they were 'wet' and would need to heal (like a normal tattoo) and the top layer of ink would come off

so with this in mind she did my first treatment, relatively light so i didnt get too much of a shock when i saw them immediately post treatment

i then had them made darker and thicker at each subsequent treatment (i had 3 in total). after the final treatment they looked horrendously dark and morticia like, but after a week had settled to the wonderful very dark brown solid colour they are now

Any chance you could put a picture or link to examples? Sounds great, I hate having to 'do' my eyebrows every morning. Years of over plucking (why why why!!!) have left some patches/gaps. Did it scab like a normal tattoo? Did you have to go into hiding for a few days after until they had healed?!

Caer you're so lucky, I have alopecia and I would love to have this done, but am also allergic to hair dye. Honestly, you have no idea of the difference it makes to your face. If I dash out in the morning without my eyebrows (almost unheard of) people ask if I'm okay, if I'm poorly, if I'm coming down with something!

they use nouveau countour, the technician i used advised me to read everything i could on their website in order to understand the process and decide which effects i would like

there is some sort of legal issue surrounding calling them permanent/semi permanent i cant really remember it, she did explain at the time, if i understand correctly after around 1-2 years they will have faded and so need 'topping up' in order to look as good as new, but will not have disappeared completely if that makes sense, here's the website with all the info: www.nouveaubeautygroup.com/nouveau-contour/
